You might remember the Theta-based GMC Terrain from the Kuwaiti International Automobile Exhibition. Apparently, GMC decided they wanted a piece of the action and will be bringing the mini-ute to the Chicago Auto Show. Interestingly, some reports say that the new Terrain will be based on the extended wheelbase Theta… »2/04/08 9:45am 2/04/08 9:45am

As a proud graduate of the University of Texas, there was a time when I knew all the letters of the Greek alphabet and all the fraternities and sororities that corresponded to them. There was also a time when I thought I knew all of the GM platforms and their associated Greek letters. Recently I've noticed that I'm… »1/23/08 2:00pm 1/23/08 2:00pm

The quick-to-the-snap spy photographers at KGP have shot what they think is the upcoming 2009 Cadillac BRX doing some cold weather testing out near GM's Milford proving grounds. At least we can only assume it's cold weather testing as it's wearing a leather snowsuit that'd make even little Randy topple over into the… »1/18/08 9:45am 1/18/08 9:45am

The Saab watchers at Trollhattan Saab rounded up the latest dirt on the next rebadged (sorry, guys) appropriated GM product to round out the Saab line. Word came down late last year that a new crossover would join the Swedish bunch, culled from GM's upcoming line of midsize CUVs, like the Buick Entourage and Saturn… »8/02/06 10:20am 8/02/06 10:20am

Either way, the newest edition to Chevy's line-up of mid-size SUV's is built on the Theta platform — like it's brother/sister cars, the Pontiac Torrent and the Suzuki XL-7. The Equinox SS (you can tell by the double pipes in back) seems to have the same… »5/23/06 8:30pm 5/23/06 8:30pm

GM released a bunch of new shots of its T2X concept truck to the European media today, giving them a look at the sporty two-door SUV unveiled at the Seoul motor show earlier this year. It's a variant of the Daewoo-built S3X prototype, which we know in the states through such Theta-architecture vehicles like the… »12/16/05 6:39am 12/16/05 6:39am

GM's self-described "product renaissance," by which the company expects to pull out of a sales nosedive, includes a raft of crossover vehicles that will span its entire pricing spectrum. At the top end are the Cadillac BRX and its "Born from Jets" cousin, the Saab 9-4X. As Edmunds Inside Line reports, the cars planed… »11/22/05 8:00am 11/22/05 8:00am

According to The Car Connection, which has procured the first spy shots we've seen of Suzuki's newest SUV, it'll be bigger than the Grand Vitara and ride on the Theta platform Suzuki developed with partner GM. That means the unnamed joint will share underpinnings with the Pontiac Torrent, Chevy Equinox and upcoming… »11/15/05 8:07am 11/15/05 8:07am
